I don't buy for a minute that Keith Moon died of an accidently OD of prescription meds. Jimi yeah but not Keith.

(This might've been Jimi's but for some reason I think it's Keith's cause of death)
He was on pills to help he beat his alcoholism but what happened was he would take a pill, fall asleep, wake up about an hour later and forget he'd taken a pill an hour earlier. This happened a bunch of times and ultimately lead to Keith's death. When they examined his stomach they found, I think, about 40 pills. Some of them were just about completely dissolved while other were still fairly whole. I don't think it was intentional.
